As I can tell Mr. Woods that 12 months would be completely unacceptable, the HSE needs to come back with a detailed breakdown of what the process would involve. This includes the tendering process, the project design work process, planning, construction and all the rest of it. All of the Members from the south east have met the Minister on this issue several times. This is a hugely important issue for me. I would not accept 12 months. There is not a chance that we will accept that we must wait for 12 months for this. I have no doubt but that it could be done far more quickly. I am a bit disappointed that Mr. Woods has not yet received the letter from the Minister but has just seen it in the media or wherever he saw it. This needs to be done quickly and 12 months is not acceptable.
